[quote=Anonymous] Baby/toddlerhood is tough for the reasons noted above -- the caregiving, changing diapers, making sure toddler doesn't run into the street, etc. I personally love the ages between 6-10. That is the easiest time. The issues and the managing of the schedules is incredibly hard at the pre-teen stage (mine are 8-13). I have considered quitting my job to stay home now that we are in the pre-teens (I went back to work after 12 weeks with each kid). I also feel I need to be there when they want me, not when it is convenient for me. My oldest has made some remarkably bad choices (A/B student), but there is scientific evidence that there is a decrease in brain functions that control common sense. The challenges are just different. I am terrified of teenage years and I think that is what makes me think I was crazy to have three. [/quote]
